5.0 out of 5 stars They did their job!
I'm very pleased with these are beautiful, elegant little glasses. I got to use these last night at the theater, and they fit perfectly in my purse nestled in their velvet carrying bag. I was up the nosebleed seats at the top balcony, so I was more than grateful to have the focusing capability! They did their job perfectly, and I was impressed I could pick out the details...

1.0 out of 5 stars I don't recommend these
I purchased these to use when I go see Broadway shows. The quality of the product was, at best, disappointing. The Adorama opera glasses were flimsy and felt like they could fall apart at any moment. Also, the item that was sent to me was not the color that I ordered (which was much less important than the obvious poor quality of the product). I returned this item to...

I'm very pleased with these are beautiful, elegant little glasses. I got to use these last night at the theater, and they fit perfectly in my purse nestled in their velvet carrying bag. I was up the nosebleed seats at the top balcony, so I was more than grateful to have the focusing capability! They did their job perfectly, and I was impressed I could pick out the details of the rhinestone patterns on the actor's costumes and even their face paint. I totally recommend these little glasses, I even got lots of compliments on them from people around me.

The only suggestion I could make is if you get them, buy a chain so you can hang them around your neck.

5.0 out of 5 stars Arrived on time, as pictured., March 17, 2009

I purchased these glasses on Feb. 20 with standard shipping, they arrived Feb. 26. They came as pictured and I am very happy with my purchase. I took them to Phantom of the Opera--we had balcony seats--and they worked great! Granted, they don't have all the features of the Bushnell binoculars my husband had, but they worked very well and we had a wonderful evening.

A few things I wish they would have mentioned in the product description: first, one can adjust the focus by rotating the little knob in the middle; second, there are little rings on the sides so that you can attach a chain. I added a chain to mine, and it was nice because I didn't have to worry about my glasses accidentally falling off my lap and getting broken.

If you want a stylish pair of opera glasses at a reasonable price, these are for you. I highly recommend them.

I ordered Opera Glasses to go to a live show becasue I was not sure how good our seats were going to be. They did a great job and giving me and my friends a better view of the stage. I have to give these 5 stars

What a great addition to my theater experience. The glasses are so light and so easy to use. They arrived in a timely fashion and have certainly enriched my theater experience.

A great purchase! They even came with a soft carrying pouch which slipped easily into my purse.

They arrived so quickly...just wish I had thought to purchase them sooner. So glad I have them now for any future shows that I will be attending.

1.0 out of 5 stars The Nightmare Before Christmas (and 6 weeks after), February 9, 2009
This review is from: Adorama 3 x 25 Aida Focusing Opera Glass Binocular, Platinum with Silver Trim (Electronics)
I ordered these before Christmas as a present for my wife, but, to my dismay, Adorama sent a model with a tacky gold trim (rather than the advertised silver trim). I returned the merchandise, and, incredibly, they sent the same gilded model again! I returned it again, they now say they have no record of the return and refuse to ship a replacement. Bottomline: I paid for a pair of opera glasses, plus about twice that amount for shipping, spent hours on the phone, and received - nothing.

I like these - just wish they came with a hard case for all the times I thought my husband was going to drop them.
